Glass and acrylic or plastic skylights are available. Tubular skylights are relatively new on the scene. The small size allows them it to be used in spaces where full-sized skylights cannot. Hallways bathrooms even closets can accommodate a tubular skylight. They provide a lot of light in spite of their small size. The concept and installation process are basically the same as for a regular skylight except they have an enclosed tunnel of reflective material to reflect the light. They are available in many sizes. The small ones are 10 to 12 inch diameter and the large ones are 24 inches. Flat glass skylights come mounted in a wood or integrated rubber and metal framework and require no additional curb construction.

To reflect an even greater amount of light into the room consider painting the inside of the shaft with gloss or semi-gloss white paint. The glass skylights are far superior to the plastic ones. The best glass skylights are surface-mounted. The flashing curb and lens are all manufactured together. They do not have separate moving parts. This makes them less susceptible to leakage and much quieter when it rains. From fixed skylights to flat glass and domed varieties many homeowners are shocked to discover there are a wide variety of skylights available for your home. Skylights are a great addition if youd like to bring natural light to a room or for creating a feeling of lightness and space.

Skylights are one of the quickest and easiest ways to make any room of your home lighter and brighter adding an open and airy feeling. Ventilating skylights are excellent for kitchens or bathrooms. In addition to providing extra light they also open. This overhead ventilation creates an updraft.

Fixed skylights are for additional light only. Theyre great for attics bonus rooms or anywhere you want extra illumination without entrance or exhaustion of air. Styles and sizes vary from domes to rectangles.
